Boooring.. with a twist

I was too tired to care much about anything at work today. All I could think about was how lucky this little girl is..

But that doesn't mean nothing happened! I honestly think I work at the circus of daily life, or a sick parody of normality. Why can't I have just ONE day where nothing out of the ordinary happens? Is that really too much to ask?

So, since the holidays are coming up, things are a bit hectic. We got new stuff coming in all the time, and shelfs are going full. Even the floor is filling. All normal events for a business at this time of year.
We don't even do all the work ourselves! No! The company doesn't even hire others, they just show up. It's crazy! All of a sudden there are twice as many non-regulars working the floor as it is employees. It's a really sweet deal. The companies that sell us stuff, comes over to make sure that their product is being displayed in the best possible way. Then they order what we will be needing for the next two weeks, and then they just leave. Almost like a good date!

And the people are nice quite nice as well. They smile, joke and laugh and the women! Oh the women are stunning! I don't know if its the constant exercise of bending over, lifting up and turning around, but these women are beautiful creatures! Well most of them..

Today, this one thing comes in, totally ignores EVERYONE, and starts working. "... whatever" I said to a colleague, and I got a "yeah, what a bitch" in return, so I knew it wasn't just me.

Being the nice guy I try to be, I tried saying "Hi/Hello" a couple of times throughout the first hours, but to no avail. She kept ignoring everyone around her, even costumers trying to get past her. Until she wanted a small box of some shitty whatchamacallit. "Hey you, get me that box". Well she was asking nicely.. "I'm sorry now what box?"

-The one at the bottom of that pallet of course

-Of course, well help me lift the other 1000lbs of stuff off of it, and we'll have your box in notime!

-?? yeah no! thats not my job. Hurry up, would you?!

-...? fkn shit bitch go die

-Sorry?

-I'm on it, mam.

I helped her out, and thought "OK, now I will never talk to that hag again", only to be interrupted by my boss saying "We got a new intern starting today! :)"

OH MY FUCKING DOG, NO!!

"Who..?"

"You'll see.. *smirk*"

Fuck that, I turned around and went home. Don't know if I will be in for work tomorrow..
